State Highway 29 crosses a number of drumlins as it heads west from the city of Green Bay. Pamperin Park at the extreme south edge of the map is described on another page. |
Looking west along Highway 29 as it crosses Duck Creek (the bridge in foreground). | |
The undulating topography shows clearly where the highway crosses successive drumlins. This and the next two views are looking west. | |
A broad valley separates the main drumlin belt from Burdon Hill, the northwesternmost drumlin | |
Beyond the drumlins, the topography abruptly becomes very flat but also much higher than the Green Bay lowland. This is a glacial lake plain thinly mantled by till. This view is looking north across Highway 29 from Overland Road | |
A view of the lake plain from the same location, looking south. | |
